For the sweet deal of $200, my dad has acquired:

Logan Grimnar
15 Terminators
60 Grey Hunters (which are "decked out"... whatever that means)
15 Long Fangs with Missile Launchers

I am actually debating to play the army myself if he doesn't!

This is what we're thinking for the core of the list:

Space Wolves - 2000
4 Wolf Guard - Power Fists, Combi-Meltas
9 Grey Hunters - Meltagun, Wolf Standard, Rhino
9 Grey Hunters - Meltagun, Wolf Standard, Rhino
9 Grey Hunters - Meltagun, Wolf Standard, Rhino
9 Grey Hunters - Meltagun, Wolf Standard, Rhino
6 Long Fangs - 5 Missiles
6 Long Fangs - 5 Missiles
Total - 1192

As you can see, there are still a 808 points to spend.

What do you recommend? Assume you can add anything (as money isn't a huge issue and transports have to be purchased regardless).

I'd run it as follows:

Logan

six squads of 5x wolf guard, each as follows:
4 stock
one with terminator armor, cyclone missile and thunder hammer.

three squads of 6 longfangs, all missiles (5 missiles and sarg)

I'd keep the wolfguard with the cyclone missiles in their original squads. terminator armor lets you move those squads around and advance while shooting missiles. Logan can either run with some wolf guard or make some long fangs relentless. And if the opponent gets close, hit them with thunderhammers.

This puts you at 1595pts (not sure, codex not with me)

If you want to upgrade to 1850 or 2000 then either increase the size of the wolf guar squads or maybe get some thunderwolves or some typhoon speeders.

hope that helps!

Interesting thoughts.

Anyone else?

Meh typical Space Wolf army. Can't kill AV14 outside of 6' really. Missles are str 8 ap3. You have no way to kill terminators.
Pray to god if you ever find yourself face to face with any kind of melee unit or paladins. Shunting units would wreck your long fangs,
making your effective long range weapons..... bolters and a meltagun?

Long fangs are starting on the board? because they can't fire and move same turn, which makes them ineffective turn 1 if they don't start on the board.

Except now with the terminator armor, your force to be footslogging or using drop pods..... terminator armor doesn't save you from PW's besides a 5+? seeing as how they are 5man
squads, they will get wiped out before that I1 hammer ever gets to strike.

Bah posting from my phone sucks

I think something to put some hurt on Land Raiders and Terminators could be good. The addition of some MMs could be wise.

We still have 800 points to spare.
